Goals

Except goals which are the same for whole Mozilla, all regions and communities, we defined a few more concise ones to lead us on our way to spread the word about Mozilla, enlarge our communities and make our ecosystem even better.

  • Define what is unique to the Balkan region (ie. region-specific market research)
  • Actively recruit new active contributors
  • Organize large events called Mozilla Balkan meetups in each Balkan country
  • Ensure that Firefox and Thunderbird are localized in every Balkan language
  • Create infrastructure which will foster collaboration of all Balkan communities

Communities

List of all active contributors on Balkans can be found at contributors page.
